| Inside Liberty |
| 4 | Letters | Our readers kick it up a notch. |
| 7 | Reflections | We hitch up the mule, vote with the dead, laud our
nation’s slayer of hurricanes, examine blood, probe hypotheticals, turn
Montana blue, give congressional bodies to science, discipline parents, find
a new use for the alphabet, and work through our remaining Issues.

Features |
| 15 | The California Crack-Up | Since the Kelo decision enraged the nation,
state after state has enacted restrictions on eminent domain. How did
California manage to bungle its chance? Timothy Sandefur shows how.
|
| Remembering
Milton Friedman |
| 20 | The Rational, The Relentless | To the world, Milton Friedman
was a Nobel laureate and adviser of presidents and potentates. To
libertarians, he was One of Ours. Bruce Ramsey assesses his place in
the story of human liberty.
|
| 25 | A Most Civil Adversary | When you came to know Milton
Friedman, as Tibor Machan discovered, you learned something new
about intellectual controversy. You also learned something new
about intellectual decency.
|
| 27 | Friendly Fights With Dr. Friedman | What happens when
you take a twenty-dollar bill from a great economist, and tear it up?
Mark Skousen found out.
|
| |
| 31 | A Libertarian Heaven on Earth | Richard Kostelanetz invites you to
ignore the petty rules and regulations (after all, the natives do) and see
New York City as it really is.
|
| Reviews |
| 35 | The Once and Future Bond | Can the flagging 007 franchise be
revived by going back to its beginnings? Jo Ann Skousen weighs the merits
of the new, blond Bond.
|
| 37 | Flowcharting Stupidity | In his new book, John Stossel sets out to
bury “myths and lies.” Gary Jason appreciates the effort, but wishes the
graves hadn’t been dug so shallow.
|
| 40 | Filmnotes | An unusual collaboration, a failure to communicate, and
something already seen.
|
| 42 | Governing on Margin | If the Roosevelt regime didn’t “save
capitalism,” what did? Bruce Ramsey scrutinizes a new take on the New
Deal.
|
 |
| 43 | Notes on Contributors | Root, root, root for the home team.
|
| 46 | Terra Incognita | What hath science wrought? |
